Comtesse De Malet Roquefort Rouge 2022
This elegant and refined red wine originates from the Bordeaux AOP in France. It is produced by the Malet Roquefort family, the historic owners of the Premier Grand Cru Classé Château La Gaffelière in Saint-Émilion. The family's philosophy for this "Comtesse" label is to provide a "gateway" to the prestige of their top estates, offering a wine that reflects their centuries of expertise in a more approachable and immediate style.
Wine Description
The Comtesse de Malet Roquefort Rouge presents a brilliant ruby red colour. The sensory profile is remarkably fresh and fruit-forward, featuring an aromatic nose of ripe strawberry, raspberry, and red currant, accented by subtle floral notes and a touch of sweet spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and supple, showcasing velvety tannins and a bright acidity that balances the richness of the fruit. It is characterized by its charm and "drinkability," leading to a clean, fruity finish with a hint of graphite. This traditional Right Bank-style blend is dominated by Merlot (typically around 80%) with a smaller portion of Cabernet Franc, and is fermented in stainless steel to preserve its pure primary fruit character.
